PRIVATE TASTING POLICY

In-Store Private Tastings

We offer private in-store tastings for groups of up to 22 people on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays, subject to the availability of the tasting room and staff.

• We offer private in-store tastings year round, except for December, when we cannot accommodate events in-store. We recommend booking well in advance
• Our private tasting room can comfortably seat up to 22 people, but we can squeeze in up to 24.
• The minimum for a private tasting is typically 10 people.
• Tastings are 1.25 to 1.5 hours long, with 30 minutes provided at the end for mingling.
• Tasting participants are offered a discount on any purchases made at the end of the tasting.
• The tastings feature 6-7 products, and we provide cheese and charcuterie. 
• The cost of the tasting is specific to each event, depends on the number of people attending, and the range of products being poured. Each tasting is customized to the client's needs, interests, and budget.
• Private wine tastings are priced based on up to 12 people, or 13-22 people, to account for the number of full bottles which need to be opened.
• Please note, the store cannot serve anyone who appears under the influence, so if any guest arrive under the influence, they will not be able to participate.

These can be arranged with one of our staff, but note these are not KWM events.

Our sommeliers and whisky experts can help you plan and host a private wine, whisky, beer, or spirits tasting at your venue.

Note you may require a liquor license from the AGLC for your event, and you are paying the tasting host directly for hosting the tasting, not Kensington Wine Market.

Product for your tasting, selected with your host, can be purchased from KWM at a discount.
